A New Frontier

Lots of interesting stuff have been happened within the last 24 hours.. I attended my first class, I've finally got my book rack, had (more like having because I'm at my job as I'm blogging) my first experience at my new part-time job, got myself a new Student ID (the old one was so worn out you could hardly read my name off it) etc etc..

Anyway, the job is pretty neat since all I do is sit at a desk and greet the residents who sign into the dorms. Meanwhile I'm allowed to do other stuff like homework, use my laptop, listen to music (no headphones though..), eat and lots more, although with an equally heavy list of reasonable restrctions. I guess this job won't be too hard on me (except the occasional odd hours.. like today I'm working from 3am-8am.. doze off accidentally once and I'm fired!) plus I get to meet quite a lot of new people (again.. doesnt really apply to the odd hours.. heck I'm almost 4 hours in and I've only seen 2 people, including the guy who worked the shift before me).

And here's some hot news I just caught on the net. Apparently there is to be a 5.6% reduction in petrol prices tomorrow. Pretty interesting noting the fact that the global oil prices dropped quite some time ago, and the Permatang Pauh by-elections are just 3 days away. Anyway, here's the article I came by for whom it may concern... http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/afp_asiapacific_business/view/370773/1/.html

Alright then. I know I had some other stuff I wanted to write on but nothing's coming to mind. Guess my brains are a little slow on a sleepless night. Ta!
